Very nice shot of the moon.

Cheers...

Wasn't holding out much hope for it as it was a bit misty and the image (well, jpeg) didn't look too sharp, but a bit of PP and it came out all right after all...:-D

Just picked up my 7DII today as a replacement (and upgrade) for my recently dead 50D (shutter failure after c.200k actuations). Lots to get my head around, but loving it so far. Will post some shots when I have something worth sharing..

Don't get hung up on the Case numbers. 1 is the base and will cover 80% of your shooting needs. the other 5 are tweaks. Listen to what the presenter says in the first minute.

https://www.youtube.co​m/watch?v=7sgRZBo-WKI (external link)

Next you have Focus priorities. One shot defaults to Focus (page 121). Leave that one there. For AI Servo page (117 & 118) there there is 1st and 2nd priority. 1st for the initial shot and 2nd for the subsequent shots in burst mode. Equal which the factory setting for both is a very good start. Some like to set it to Focus but just go out and shoot and have some fun. Read and experiment as you get more confident.

1st and 2nd priorities control auto focus acquisition. Case numbers control tracking characteristics after AF acquisition.

That is about it. The above items are are about all you can really control when it comes to this cameras AF characteristics. Keep things simple when you start.

Also I would go to the custom controls. Pg 445 of the manual. The last two icons on the right column. Set the multi-controller button so. you can move the AF point around. Set the AF lever so it can change AF modes. Two handy features.

Good luck and have fun.

Phenomenal Kite. I've got to found out where they are relative to me, well within 500 miles.

Not my pic.


I prefer to be in the bush with the animals than a crowded city.
